ECOWAS condemns Niger coup leaders' charges against former president
The West African regional bloc ECOWAS has condemned the decision of Niger's military rulers to prosecute the deposed president for treason.
They say it is yet another provocation.
Mohamed Bazoum was removed and arrested after the military seized power in a coup last month.
The United Nations has called the developments worrying.
Al Jazeera's Ahmed Idris reports from Katsina, in neighbouring Nigeria.
